So this is a raw version of a track I just wrote n a lil slideshow I put together with it...sorry that the beat is so low...it'll all sound better once i get back in the studio...hope ya'll like it
Heres the lyrics:
Some believe we didnt start as humans/Only through evolution/ Apes became intuitive/ Like Mother Nature said I choose you to live (word)
Some believe in Genesis, no Sega/ Made by the Creator/ Dont covet thy neighbor/ I see you sinning but my son can save ya/ (word)
Some believe it was Isis, Osiris/ Birthed Horus, Set was the virus/ Take it back to the cradle, Sumerians/ They say gods were Anunnaki aliens/ Somebody tell me whats a pagan?/ How many Christians had my ancestors slaving?/ Those debates I dont engage in/ Rather go google Ronald Regan/ Many been through all the lifes and times/ Make sure you study if you write these lines/ Some will arise just to fight these crimes/ And some are the conflict, convict kind/ Just try to stay away from Babylon/ Once I hear sirens nigga I be gone/ They rather have sheep, no telling what a wolf could do/Put ya mind to it, show me what ya will could do/ Tell me why theres two versions for Banneker/Modern day Moors make use of the vernacular/ While our youths be rolling/ Dont even know our history stolen/ We stuffing all that mess in our colons/ Where theres peace in the streets, no beast be patrolling/ And yall dont even know whats the chaos cause/ They just play along and go break they laws/ Why the white ball knock around all those balls?/ They say its just game, look at all thats lost/ One day Ima purchase me a Basquiat/ Let it hang by a picture of Selassie I/ Tell me, why they wanna murder I?/ They call me wicked if I access my third eye/ Dont tap into your consciousnesses turbine? (heh)/ No telling what you can see/ No telling what you can be/So use ya pineal gland and ya DMT/ I wish I could save the world like a EMT/But they rather stay at home watchin BET/ Somehow its too hard to get a GED/ Those doctors with unusual voices/ Grew up not knowing what a multiple choice is/When you fail your competitor rejoices/Thats when they got you where they wanted you/ Na, they aint box you out the ring but they cornered you/ And most people will give in to the K.O./ Theres more hope for the infan,t he aint even a day old/ Cuz we only in the age of the two fish/ I work, cultivate, protect with my two fist/ Now that can leave you toothless/ Dont make me get my two fifth/ My goal is to gather up more wisdom then Confuscious/ Temptation will seduce us, and since were only human/ Our weakness will reduce us, but our strength is in the union/ Out of many one people/We all in the human race, we all equal/ Is there a heaven and hell or more sequels?/ If we want freedom prevailed, need more eagles/ They say Christmas is all about the ornaments/ But look at all the aide for the earthquake in Port au Prince/ See I got faith that my words truly audible/ I think we getting closer but still we got far to go
